1 cup dill, finely chopped

1 pack phyllo sheets
½ cup Milk
250g anthotiro cheese (ricotta), crumbled
200g Feta Cheese , crumbled

In a large bowl, add the leeks, dill, milk, anthotiro, feta, eggs, salt and pepper to taste and mixing to combine.

Preheat the oven at 180C

Brush the baking pan with olive oil and lay 1 phyllo sheet, to cover the pan, allowing it to exceed the pan. Brush it with olive oil and continue with ½ of the remaining phyllo sheets.

Spread evenly on top, half of the leak mixture, cover it with one phyllo sheet, brush it with olive oil and spread on top the remaining leek mixture. Fold inwards the exceeding phyllo sheets and brush with olive oil.

Lay on top one phyllo sheet, to cover the leek mixture. Cut with a knife any exceeding phyllo sheets from the pan and brush with olive oil. Repeat with the remaining phyllo sheets.

Whisk in a small bowl the eggs to form an eggwash.

Score the surface of the leek pie, pour the eggwash mixture over and bake in the preheated oven for about 30 to 40 min.
Remove the “prasopita” from the oven, cut in pieces and serve.
